“The Filipinos, who are expected to fly home this weekend, lost three of their last four games.”

Who wrote this? That sentence is so misleading even if it is factual. There were only 6 games in all and Gilas won 3. In the games lost, 2 were just by a single point and the other by 4 points.

The last few games is only relevant to mention to project a trend if there were many games played DURING A SEASON. This was just a 6-game tuneup.
